Two storey extensions allow you to add more bedrooms and ground floor rooms. These need planning permission - we manage the application process once your are happy with your plans. We will work with you to create the perfect design for your home. After our first meeting you will know what can be achieved, how long it will take and how much it will cost.
Whether you chose us for your plans or had them drawn by someone else, we are able to provide structural calculations for your project if needed. In your initial meeting we will tell you whether your project will need planning permission. If it does, we can submit your plans and manage the process for you until permission is granted. When you're ready to start building, we will work with building control to ensure construction runs as smoothly as possible. We can also advise the builder and make site visits.

Planning Permission
Report
We probably submit more planning applications than any other company in Sheffield every year, as well as many for Rotherham, Chesterfield, Doncaster, Barnsley and Wakefield. You will need planning permission for any single storey extensions over 4m high so of course for any two storey extensions. Front extensions also need permission or any dormers on the front of the house.
Building Control Approval
Report
Sometimes you don't need planning permission for certain projects, but you will almost always need building regulations drawings and building control department approval.
This process involves the inspector checking the plans to make sure the correct technical elements are specified such as beam sizes for taking out load bearing walls, timber joist sizes for roofs and floors and insulation levels needed and many more things to make sure your extension is built properly and safely.

Recommended Builders
Report
Most builders charge about 1000 - 1,200 per square meter for a basic single storey extension; this will be finished, plastered with electrics, radiators and standard windows and doors. The price will be increased when you add things like bi-fold doors, Velux roof windows, under-floor heating or any complicated knock through requiring steel work.
